If the filter is clogged with dust, the amount of air flow will be reduced, resulting in poor
cooling performance. The filter should be cleaned for every 10 days. At the beginning of
every cooling season or if the air conditioner has not been used for a long period, clean the
filter before starting to operate the unit.

marked portion. Then lift and unhook the
bottom of the air filter and remove it.
CAUTION:

stress to the opened grille. The grille may come
off, or the grille shaft may get damaged. If the
grille should come off, replace it by following
instructions given in page E-3 "CAUTION".

To remove dust from the filter, use a vacuum
cleaner or wash it with water.
